Dear Collier County Board of Commissioners,
My name is Victor Gregor. I live at 9193 Quartz Lane, #202 in The Quarry. I have owned this
property for 12 years.
I strongly support the pending PUD Amendment for the Heritage Bay PUD. Limestone Trail is a
privately-owned and maintained road. It is not intended to be used as a thorough-fare for the
general traveling public and commercial vehicles from the Commercial Activity Center. Rather,
based on the development plans for the overall Heritage Bay PUD, it is intended to allow both The
Quarry and Heritage Bay communities access to the Commercial Activity Center. This purpose will
not be impacted by the Amendment or the installation of gates. The increased traffic from the
general public using this road to access the traffic signal at Immokalee Road and Quarry Drive will
increase the costs to The Quarry to maintain the road. The liability associated with general public
access also is a significant concern. Why should our community bear the financial and liability
burden of this? This is unacceptable.
In addition, allowing the general public to use Limestone Trail to access the traffic signal has the
potential for delays and traffic congestion at the intersection of Quarry Drive and Immokalee Road.
This could lead to safety issues for Quarry residents. It will make it more difficult for The Quarry and
Heritage Bay residents to exit their communities by creating back-ups on Quarry Drive entering and
leaving The Quarry.
Therefore, it is imperative that the Amendment to the Heritage Bay PUD is approved. This will allow
gates to be installed on privately-owned Limestone Trail which will address the above concerns.
There is no other way to eliminate maintenance and liability costs to The Quarry and avoid the
corresponding negative impact to our community. It is unfortunate that a traffic signal was installed
at Quarry Drive and Immokalee Road and not near the Commercial Activity Center. If this was done,
the entire issue would be moot. The Quarry would have been more than happy to sacrifice a light at
its entrance to avoid the risks and costs of increased general public and commercial vehicle traffic on
Limestone Trail.
Thank you for your consideration of our community’s concerns,
Victor Gregor
